Our Story
Why Kelly's Reading Club exists...
...and why it works.
All too often, school isn't enough to build the solid reading foundation every child deserves. Classrooms are busy, curriculum moves fast, and children who need a little more time (or a different approach) can fall behind before anyone realizes it.
That's exactly where Kelly's Reading Club comes in.
We provide fun, focused, and highly effective 1:1 30-minute live online reading lessons designed specifically for children in Grades 1 to 5 across Ontario. Every session is built around your child — their pace, their strengths, and their goals — so that real progress happens every single week.
Our approach is grounded in the Science of Reading and structured literacy, using the UFLI scope and sequence and Orton-Gillingham principles, the evidence-based methods now recognized as the gold standard for reading instruction in Ontario and across Canada. We specialize in supporting struggling readers and neurodiverse learners, including children with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences.
Because we teach online, we fit seamlessly into busy family schedules, serving families from Toronto and the GTA, and across Ontario.
Our goal isn't just to teach your child to read. It's to help them become a reader who actually loves to read. 💛
WHAT TO EXPECT
Fully Personalized Lessons
Every 30-minute session is designed specifically for your child , never a one-size-fits-all program.
Structured Literacy Approach
Lessons follow the UFLI scope and sequence with Orton-Gillingham principles — proven methods rooted in the Science of Reading.
Support for Neurodiverse Learners
We specialize in dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences. Every child learns differently and that's exactly our expertise.
Fun, Playful & Confidence-Building
Learning to read should feel good. We make every lesson engaging so kids leave feeling proud, capable, and excited to come back.
Meet Kelly
I'm an Ontario Certified Teacher (OCT) with a Master of Education (M.Ed.) and a Special Education Specialist designation, PLUS more than 20 years spent in primary classrooms and special education settings across Ontario.
Throughout my career, I've supported young learners across the full spectrum, especially children who need a little extra time, a different approach, or someone who genuinely believes in them. In 2021, I founded Kelly's Reading Club to bring together everything I know about neurodiversity, learning differences, and the science of reading research into lessons that truly make a difference, one child at a time.
I know how heavy it can feel when your child is struggling with reading. I know the worry that comes with watching them fall behind, and how much you want to help. My goal is to make that weight lighter by giving your child clear, effective instruction grounded in structured literacy, and the confidence to believe: "I can do this."
Every lesson at Kelly's Reading Club is designed to help Ontario students keep up, feel proud of their progress, and grow into readers who don't just know how to read but actually love to. 💛
